IMHO remove the unneeded if() and also look at av_freep() it could be used to 
further simplify the code

anyway, IMHO defining MEMALIGN_HACK by default is a bad idea, it will cause 
many more problems, like breaking malloc debuggers
it also wont solve unaligned *alloc() outside libav* issues, and solving these 
similarely will probably lead to more issues with things like strdup()+free()
